Accidentally spotted 2 scooters of yester years, at Aloft Hotel in Chennai. Reddish scooters which are a few decades old… Sharing the photos (clicked on mobile camera) here as we don’t get to see them everyday. Kindly excuse if this is not of your interest
Asked a hotel staff for more details, she advised me to go to another place near reception where another model is kept on display, along with technical specs. Made between 1951 and 1953, these scooters have 125 cc and 150cc engine producing 5 horse power. Had 3 gears. Click on the images below for details specs.
Asked hotel staff if they have details about their owners or from where they got these scooters.. They had no clue…

Unfortunately scooters are disappearing from market... Bajaj has stopped making scooters and other players like LML have long vanished from market... A few Bajaj retro ads for quick reference
